Dragon Clan: Starting from obtaining Yaki, counterattack against the gods

Chapter 84: How can one be enough to raise a dragon?
Just a few months ago, Uesugi Yue thought that he would depend on that small ramen stand until his death. It would be best if he could go to France before he died and close his eyes while listening to the bells in the church in his memory.

Countless nuns will pray for him, and he will be buried under God's care, lonely and holy.

If it was at that time, he would never have imagined that a few months later he would be sitting in the private car of the Japanese underworld patriarch, listening to his daughter say that she brought back a dragon.

But Yuan Zhinv didn't think there was anything wrong: "He hasn't awakened and hasn't recovered his memory. He's just an ordinary person now. I think we can keep him in captivity."

Captive, one-stop service?

Uesugi Yue felt that he had heard it wrongly. Several question marks slowly appeared on his forehead. He couldn't help but ask: "Why not just kill him?"

"Hybrids and dragons are natural enemies. Isn't now the best time to kill this guy before he recovers his strength?"

"I was originally going to kill him, but there was a nasty guy plotting against me. He seemed to want to make me kill Norton and become the next Herzog."

Upon hearing this, Uesugi Yue subconsciously widened his eyes, but what Genjiro said next shocked him even more.

"Dad, I showed you Herzog's files. Do you remember there was a guy named Bondarev in it?"

"I seem to have some impression of him. What happened to him?"

"That guy is the culprit of everything. Herzog is a pawn controlled by him. He has been hiding behind the scenes. He paved all the way for Herzog."

Genjitsu told Uesugi Koshi all her guesses and things about Bondarev, and Uesugi Koshi's expression became more and more interesting as he listened, until in the end he was completely in disbelief.

"I killed one of his doubles, but I don't know where his real body is hiding. I suspect he might be some damned dragon king."

"He wanted to revive the White King and then kill him. Maybe it was to test whether a human could seize the king's power, or maybe it was for the White King's body. But Herzog is dead, so he is targeting me now."

"He wants to turn me into the new White King and then kill me."

The calm voice of Minamoto Chikōjo was like a thunderclap, which frightened Uesugi Yue so much that he broke out in a cold sweat. This huge conspiracy was like a big net, covering him up and making him feel suffocated subconsciously.

But looking at the thin and pale girl in front of him, a huge anger exploded in his heart, almost burning out his sanity.

"I will never allow this to happen!" Veins popped out on the old man's forehead, his eyes widened with anger, and he gritted his teeth: "I will kill that guy!"

Compared to his excitement, Yuan Zhinv acted very calm and indifferent: "There's nothing wrong with being the White King. It's still uncertain who will kill whom. I'm mainly worried that there's a trap here."

Full of anger, Uesugi was stunned: "What?"

"Anyway, Dad, you need to pay attention to this matter. Don't let anyone with ulterior motives enter the Snake Eight Families. The Japanese underworld must not be used as pawns again. As for whether to kill Norton or not, I won't have an answer until two days later."

Calculating the time, there were still more than ten hours before the simulator refreshed the simulation times. Yuan Zhinv gave a perfunctory reason: "I need to think about it."

Uesugi Yue seemed to want to say something, but in the end all the words were swallowed back. He sighed, his voice filled with helplessness.

"Little girl, sometimes you can rely on us a little more."

Genjitsu didn't say anything. Looking at the girl's pale face, Uesugi Yue couldn't stop feeling heartbroken. However, he didn't say anything in the end. He just made a secret decision in his heart.

Even if he can't help her, the Eight Snake Clans under his command will never become her weakness. He will be her strongest backing.

There was no conversation along the way until Yuan Zhinu returned to the familiar room. She had just sat down when she heard a slight noise behind her.

Yuan Zhinu did not look back. After a moment, a pair of soft hands supported her head and gently massaged several acupoints. A familiar warm fragrance lingered at her nose.

Genji closed her eyes in relaxation, and Sakurai Kogure's gentle voice sounded in her ears, with an undisguised heartache in her tone.

"It seems like you're always tired. You've done a good job. Can't you give yourself a break?"

"But the crisis is not over yet." Yuan Zhinv sighed softly: "Once we kill all those damn things, we should be able to rest."

"Will it take long?"

"It will take a long time."

Sakurai Kogure didn't say anything else. Genjitsu became more and more relaxed under her gentle massage. Smelling the faint warm fragrance, the irritability that had always lingered in her heart was slowly soothed, and her breathing gradually became even.

Since coming to Tokyo many years ago, the pressure and challenges that Gen Chijo faces every day are unimaginable. Countless times on the verge of life and death caused her to suffer a mental breakdown and turn into a bloodthirsty madman. At such times, only Sakurai Kogure could comfort her.

Sakurai Kogure looked at the sleeping girl and carefully held her in his arms. She sat contentedly on the edge of the bed, closed her eyes and moved her lips.

"No matter how long it takes, I will always be with you."

The sound was very light and disappeared in the quiet room in an instant as if it had never sounded, leaving only a dim light in the room.

The sky outside the window gradually darkened. In the dim room, the charming girl hugged the pale and thin girl tightly, just like countless nights before.

Yuan Zhinu had a rare good night's sleep.

When she woke up and opened her eyes, it was already bright outside. There was a steaming breakfast beside the bed and next to it was her cleaned and polished long knife with a note underneath it.

Genji picked up the note and took a look. On it was Sakurai Kogure's beautiful handwriting:
——Eri insisted on coming to see you, so I took her out to play. Go ahead and do whatever you want to do.

——Remember to eat breakfast.

With a slight emotion in her heart, Yuan Zhinu packed up briefly, then went out with the knife and breakfast.

The simulator times were refreshed, and she headed straight to where Old Tang was.

Because of her instructions, the man was now hidden in the deepest part of Genji Heavy Industries, under heavy surveillance everywhere. He had not woken up yet due to his serious injuries, otherwise he would have been scared to death seeing such a big scene.

Yuan Zhinu came to the man's side without any hindrance. Looking at his pale and peaceful sleeping face, she slowly raised the knife and imagined chopping off his head with one blow. At the same time, she silently said in her heart: "Begin the simulation."

[Ding, simulation begins——]

[On the first day, you killed the defenseless Old Tang and cut off his head with a single blow. He died, and at the moment of death his body suddenly exploded. The huge flames caused a violent burning, affecting the entire Genji Heavy Industries.] [On the second day, you were injured in the flames, and at the same time found that your bloodline did not improve significantly, and the experience gained was even less than that of the dragon-shaped corpse guard. You were very confused.]

[On the third day, you couldn't find the reason, and Old Tang didn't turn into a dragon bone cross, but you confirmed that he was Norton]

【…】

[On the 7th day, Lao Tang’s body disappeared]

【…】

[On the 13th day, you returned to the academy, but you still felt strange. You thought that the Dragon King should not have only this little experience. You continued to browse the Hunter Network to try to find the answer.]

【…】

[On the 32nd day, you found a senior scholar who studies dragons on the Hunter website. You asked him about it and it seemed like you had discovered something.]

【…】

[On the 45th day, you finally know where the problem lies. Dragon Kings cannot be considered dragons before they awaken. If you kill them before they awaken their power, you will not get the Dragon Bone Cross. They are not really dead and will turn into cocoons on the spot again, so their bodies will not decay.]

[Day 46, you realize that killing a dragon that has not yet awakened will not gain you any power, and Norton is not really dead. His body has become his cocoon, but you don't know who stole him.]

[Day 47, the academy is preparing to send people to China's Three Gorges Reservoir, apparently preparing to carry out some mission]

【…】

[On the 52nd day, the academy started the "Kuimen" mission. You know that they are going to find Constantine. You apply to carry out the mission.]

[On the 53rd day, Angers rejected your application and your request for an interview]

【…】

[On the 65th day, Ange left the academy. He seemed to be going to do something very important. You felt that you couldn't just sit there and wait for death.]

[On the 66th day, you contacted Uesugi Yue and prepared to go to the Three Gorges Reservoir to salvage Constantine in advance]

【…】

[On the 84th day, there was still no trace of Angers, as if he was being held back by someone. You left the academy and went to China, where you met up with the people from the Sheqi Eight Clan at the Three Gorges Reservoir]

[Day 85, you begin to explore the Three Gorges Reservoir]

[On the 86th day, an accident occurred during the exploration. It seems that someone had been waiting there for a long time. He woke up Constantine before you did. He found out that his brother was dead and went berserk.]

[Day 87, the Eight Snake Clan suffered heavy losses due to the unexpected situation, and you killed Constantine who was forcibly awakened]

[On the 88th day, you obtained a dragon bone cross. Your bloodline was greatly improved, but not as much as you imagined. It seems that the experience gained from killing dragons is proportional to the strength of the dragon killed.]

[On the 89th day, when you returned to Japan with the Dragon Bone Cross, the Snake Eight Clan was attacked, the Dragon Bone Cross disappeared, and Uesugi Yue, who was guarding the dragon bone, died silently]

[On the 90th day, you saw Odin riding an eight-legged divine horse in the remaining surveillance footage, but he did not attack you and seemed to be waiting for something. You know, he was waiting for you to become the White King]

[This simulation ends]

[Drawing reward items——]

[Currently available options: Junyan Experience Card*1, a potion that can forcibly awaken dragons*1, greatly improving bloodline]

[Host please select one]

Yuan Zhinv stared at the simulation results for a long time, and after a while she managed to squeeze out a sentence from between her teeth: "Sure enough."

No one knows whether Bondarev is Odin or not, but he is not worried at all that the Source Girl will kill Old Tang, because he knows that a dragon king who has not awakened is not a dragon at all and the dragon bone cross will not appear, and he will transform into a cocoon again.

So in the original book, they should have known Norton's human identity a long time ago, but they did not take action against Old Tang. Instead, they killed Constantine in front of him first, forcing him to awaken.

Through this simulation, Yuan Zhinv also obtained an important clue. The experience she gained from killing dragons did not depend on the bloodline of the dragon, but on the strength of the dragon. Therefore, Old Tang, who was still a human, did not even get as much experience as the dragon-shaped corpse.

Even if we really want to kill the Dragon King, we have to wait until they awaken, otherwise it will be almost meaningless.

And if she did it as in the original book, she would be making wedding dresses for others in vain. Too many people were staring at her and Japan, especially that old shady prankster Odin. He got the Dragon Bone Cross when he was not strong enough, which was a crime worthy of the name.

But it is impossible to just leave it alone. If she lets Old Tang go today, that bad boy will pick on the two brothers as soon as he enters school tomorrow, and then she will really get nothing out of it.

Genjitsu didn't like to make wedding dresses for others, nor did she like to have her favorite things snatched away by others. Her brain was working fast, and she quickly came up with a plan in her mind. She picked up a potion that could awaken dragons, and went to find Uesugi Yue in a straightforward manner.

Before Uesugi Yue could say anything, he heard the girl in front of him say, "I've decided. We won't kill Norton yet. Let's go get his brother Constantine first."

"I think one dragon isn't enough. Since they are twins, the whole family should be together. We might as well catch them all at once."

The girl's calm tone was as if she was saying that having one pet is not enough, you should have two so that they can keep each other company.

But who has a dragon king as a pet? Huh?!

But Yuan Zhinu didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She even asked him with a confident look: "Dad, what do you think of my idea?"

Uesugoshi: "..."

Uesugi Yue felt that it was not very good.

This world is crazy after all, so crazy that even an old man like him can’t understand it.
